Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 4 slices ham slices
- 4 slices Swiss cheese slices
- 1 can (10.5 ounces) cream of chicken soup
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 cup Panko breadcrumbs
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 as needed cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
Place the chicken breasts in the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle both sides with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
Place one slice of ham on top of each chicken breast, followed by a slice of Swiss cheese.
In a small bowl, mix the cream of chicken soup and sour cream until smooth. Spread this mixture evenly over the chicken breasts, covering each piece completely.
In a separate bowl, combine Panko breadcrumbs, melted butter, and dried parsley. Stir until the breadcrumbs are evenly coated.
Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture over the top of the casserole, ensuring an even layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F/74°C) and the topping is golden brown.
Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before serving. Serve warm with your choice of side dishes, such as rice or steamed vegetables.
